Do I Have the Strength For This?

Do I have the strength for this? Do I have the love for this? Imagining yours, her tender kiss Finding out relatives also have shared in this No matter how long ago it may have taken place Still I feel pain when I look in their face. I feel if I put a stop to the poison right now I will surely lose her though I don’t know how And if I let it continue on I will still lose her Another Heartache is born.

aww a sad but powerful poem, I can relate to this poem my mother left home when i was 11 I saw my dad have a break down over it, the funny thing was later in life the man my mother maried ended up marrying one of my sisters, so I dont need to imagine I saw with my own eyes the damage it does, my heart geos out to you if this is a true story, it is painful for all, God bless you from diane
